# phosphor-react-native

Phosphor is a flexible icon family for interfaces, diagrams, presentations — whatever, really. Explore all our icons at [phosphoricons.com](https://phosphoricons.com).
Inspired by [phosphor-react](https://github.com/phosphor-icons/phosphor-react).

## Installation

```bash
yarn add phosphor-react-native
```

or

```bash
npm install --save phosphor-react-native
```

## Usage

Simply import the icons you need, and add them anywhere in your render method. Phosphor supports tree-shaking, so your bundle only includes code for the icons you use.

```tsx
import React from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { Horse, Heart, Cube } from "phosphor-react-native";

const App = () => {
  return (
    <View>
      <Horse />
      <Heart color="#AE2983" weight="fill" size={32} />
      <Cube color="teal" weight="duotone" />
    </View>
  );
};
```

### Props

Icon components accept all props that you can pass to a normal SVG element, including inline `style` objects, `onClick` handlers, and more. The main way of styling them will usually be with the following props:

- **color?**: `string` – Icon stroke/fill color. Can be any CSS color string, including `hex`, `rgb`, `rgba`, `hsl`, `hsla`, named colors.
- **size?**: `number | string` – Icon height & width. As with standard React elements, this can be a number, or a string with units in `px`, `%`, `em`, `rem`, `pt`, `cm`, `mm`, `in`.
- **weight?**: `"thin" | "light" | "regular" | "bold" | "fill" | "duotone"` – Icon weight/style. Can also be used, for example, to "toggle" an icon's state: a rating component could use Stars with `weight="regular"` to denote an empty star, and `weight="fill"` to denote a filled star.

### Context

Phosphor takes advantage of React Context to make applying a default style to all icons simple. Create an `IconContext.Provider` at the root of the app (or anywhere above the icons in the tree) and pass in a configuration object with props to be applied by default to all icons:

```tsx
import React from "react";
import { View } from "react-native";
import { IconContext, Horse, Heart, Cube } from "phosphor-react-native";

const App = () => {
  return (
    <IconContext.Provider
      value={{
        color: "limegreen",
        size: 32,
        weight: "bold",
      }}
    >
      <View>
        <Horse /> {/* I'm lime-green, 32px, and bold! */}
        <Heart /> {/* Me too! */}
        <Cube />  {/* Me three :) */}
      </View>
    </IconContext.Provider>
  );
};
```

You may create multiple Contexts for styling icons differently in separate regions of an application; icons use the nearest Context above them to determine their style.

### Imports

You may wish to import all icons at once for use in your project, though depending on your bundler this could prevent tree-shaking and make your app's bundle larger.

```tsx
import * as Icon from "phosphor-react-native";
...
<Icon.Smiley />
<Icon.Folder weight="thin" />
<Icon.BatteryHalf size="24px" />
```

## To do

- [ ] Make an example app using Expo.
- [ ] Support `mirrored` prop.
